Jungle Jobbie

Posted on March 29, 2011 by AHC McDonald

Last post before Vietnam and the Deefock Supremacy. Now what image could transcend and even link East and West? How about this from Mike? A Carlisle outdoor bog with massed Cocos and sundry palms next door. As if the foreground has been agent oranged/napalmed, while Charlie/jungle is already surging back. Perfect. I’m sure I will be able to – as they say “compare and contrast” Vietnamese and Carlisle outdoor jungle crappers. Existence is always suffering.

Time for some sackings at The West?

Posted on March 28, 2011 by AHC McDonald

I wouldn’t feel right leaving the country without one more spray at The West.

Must be high time for a round of sackings of the nincompoops running The West’s online presence. Firstly it is total incompetence that The Worst of Perth comes up number one for google searches for Rob Broadfield Indiana. His most sought after review where he gives the lowest score ever to the Indiana Tearooms is invisible. In fact The West doesn’t appear anywhere in the search results at all. People are really, really wanting to read this review content but the paper is happy to see all their search traffic – which they could be leveraging ad revenue off, go to a website that it constantly calling them incompetent cunts.

It is total incompetence that The Worst of Perth comes up #1 for searches on Inside Cover and Inside Cover Perth. Inside Cover is actually a minibrand that people would want to see online. Once again the search traffic is being wasted by these plonkers. I bet the advertisers are loving it. And how about the Inside Cover twitter feed. Twitter, which is a perfect medium for Inside Cover promotion, was last updated on the 1st of January. And the banner still has Rob Broadfield on it. I loved how they taught Adshead how to do twitter. Superb teaching. Why do they still promote it in the paper? By the way TWOP comes up #1 for Gary adshead twitter too.inside cover

I’m told that the concept is that they will be able to paywall/ipad app Broadfield and IC and make money off them that way. But everyone knows it won’t happen. They don’t have it in them to do it. And why bleed all the traffic in the meantime?
On other matters, what’s the deal with Steve “Teh Walkley” Pennells. Flying back from Germany, skulking into The West offices, but no announcement. Hmm. One would hope he’s going to be the new Online Content head honcho. He’ll have to wake up the guys sleeping at their desks to sack them though.

Cannington Sluts – The look of love

Posted on March 28, 2011 by AHC McDonald

G-banger saw the new – and in fact old Cannington chic at Myers Carousel. Shows Fremantle fashionistas how it’s really done. You know I’m not 100% convinced that this is the ideally posed mannequin for this piece of clothing. You may disagree.cannington slutscannington sluts

Weekend Worstoff 145

Posted on March 26, 2011 by AHC McDonald

In TWOP news, Deefock has equal control of the comment queue. He just aproved his own comment. True story.

Nervous Twitch sends in some worst of New Zealand from Kahaurangi National Park. The Colour H claims that this is the end of days for number plates. Hmm. Somehow it is worse than the outrageously stupid ones. GB likes this “high exposure site” on Manning Road Como. I have wondered myself about the window graffiti. King Neptune? It is just a short splash from the river. And JaneZ saw one for Teh Bartender, also paying tribute to the clipart.

MG Buddha

Posted on March 25, 2011 by AHC McDonald

James N combines 2 worsts in one, or maybe 1 worst and one not. The odd little MG shop on Guildford Rd Maylands with dusty bits of junk of a vaguely MG/automotive nature. Reflected is the magnificence of the Buddhist Centre, which is the finest conversion of a squash courts I’ve ever seen.

Peppermint Grove – of Satan

Posted on March 24, 2011 by AHC McDonald

A perfect essence of The Worst of Perth by Orbea. I believe it’s the first Peppermint Grove Worst too. (Later found to be Mosman Park) It’s even got the classic toilet bowl planter. Multi million dollar views for these cactus familiars.

Operation Punji Stick

Posted on March 22, 2011 by AHC McDonald

I’m going to Vietnam next week until the middle of April. Since much of the time I will be without internet connection, you will have a new overlord for that period. I needed someone who understood the laws of defamation, but didn’t understand the laws of decency. So only one choice. I don’t know if he will be calling for submissions, or will be imposing a 2 week reign of terror using only his own baffingly blurry images. You might start pestering him now with your “gold” that I wouldn’t run.

At the very least, you can expect an improvement in the accurate use of the semi colon: And colon.

Perth Comedy Liars

Posted on March 22, 2011 by AHC McDonald

The true story of the Ice House Comedy Club (WAtoday story removed. Still here,) by a REAL comedy insider. Aja Styles was totally snowed by Perth comedy liars.

“The 28-year-old Homeswest tenant alleged to be at the centre of a clandestine drug laboratory which exploded on Sunday posted uncanny drug references on his Facebook profile.

On his Facebook profile Mr Marzoli states that his employer was a company called “The Ice House Comedy Club”, a club unbeknownst to the Perth comedy scene.”

“Unbeknownst”? Comedians wouldn’t know unbeknownst if it had unbeknownst stamped on its wrist. Total bollocks. The club is like totally in existence.It has run from the roof garden of Curtin House (CIB) for 15 years.

Meanwhile comedy insiders confirm that the “Ice House Comedy Club” was unheard of in Perth circles.

What’s a comedy Club? They talk to comedy insiders but don’t ask me for a quote? Obviously bogus story. They also didn’t ask Don “The Don” Smith?

Sam Longley from Lazy Susan’s Comedy Den in Perth said he had never heard of it in his nine years of running comedy lounges “Obviously I’ve heard of the Ice House Comedy LOUNGE, but Comedy CLUB? Nah. No such place.”

Would that be Sam “The Molecular Gastronomist” Longley?

This was confirmed by John McAllister, who runs comedy at Little Creatures in Fremantle and the Charles Hotel in North Perth, as well as by Werzel Montague.

Would that be “English John” McAllister? The one who keeps half starved pigs in his basement? The basement where that guy looking to get back his $2000 radio mike and rolls of real gaffer tape, not that fake stuff but real us gaffer was last seen?

“Total news to me and I know comedy clubs,” said Mr Montague, a 15-year Perth comedy veteran. “There’s definitely no such room. It’s definitely not a room I’m taking your call in. Room? What room? Who says I know anything about any room? Have you been talking to Don? If you have, you understand he had heart problems right? totally fucked up his memory. The guys like a brother, a really short brother, but seriously, the cunt hasn’t seen room one.”

And the cock crowed Werzel. Sad how these comedy cunts desert the ship as soon as there’s some kind of massive toxic explosion.
